supreme commander-in-chief of the armed forces volodymyr zelenskyi of ukraine in an interview with sbs news he said that ukraine will not stop the counteroffensive because of the weather and intends to break through the russian defense, let's listen to mr. zelenskyi if we stop, as it was last year after the successes in the kharkiv direction, the weather was bad, the partners started and i i think to relax and hand over weapons to us eyes in the expectation that the weather will be better in the spring and everything will be normal there is time to prepare to collect shells, etc. i do not want to push my partners to nothing but yes

putin's tic is clear, the war is to destroy ukraine and to exhaust our forces , exhaust the unity of partners, take a pause. you can't do this, the weather can give you pauses, but not everyone can have drone attacks. there can be another operation, in any case, don't do any frozen conflicts, don't pause as much as possible. to de-occupy our territory and go forward even if this day is not a kilometer , not 10, but 100 m, we must do it, sir, and we are already on the air. please tell us what the current situation is in that part of the front where you where you are because quite a lot of information is coming from the eastern front and from the direction of bakhmut andriyivka klishchivka i understand that there will be news and according to kurdyuminka what

is happening there klishchivka is the bakhmut district it is not far from us we are also in the bakhmut district but the situation here is a little different and even in it is a little easier for us because our positions in the 14th year of enemy assaults and there is less to say, the war is quite positional, now you see how the guys are biting right there by 100 by 200 it is difficult to pass through 300 m of ground mines are very dense on one square meter, there can be several types of mines from two there to tima, six , that's normal. well, it's very difficult to give and pass, especially especially for the stormtroopers, now our artillerymen are actively doing counterbattery work, they appeared today

acoustic systems that actually calculate the enemy battery based on the acoustics and make an effective impression on it, therefore, the statistics regarding the destroyed batteries in our country is even very high plus, well , what do we do? drones, i’m already telling you this, i’m not the one who is involved in this process, where the leading commanders of the best brigades will tell you, that is, now even the artillery. imagine that the artillery does not even provide such an effective way to smoke out the orks from the trenches , that sometimes purely fpv drones fly right into the trenches a- either it's the fucking 200s or simply the orcs can't stand such a load and run away themselves because the advantage

of the drone is that you can fly straight into the eye, right through the entire hole, right this entrance is of course nimina no not even hail doesn't give that's why drones are used in beer, well, in general, drones are becoming more and more ineffective every day , and the enemy is also using them now, moreover , on the battlefield , the drone itself, that is, you are not afraid of that. you're not afraid of a mortar, even hail, for you it's a smart tool of impression but with a drone , of course , the future can catch up with drones in general, and even now , the present, uh, it shows itself very, very effectively, i understand that lord and mountains

that we are now witnessing a combination of several uh ways of waging war of the first world war when people smoke out the uh enemy from the trenches and the second is a new war, the war of drones - this is even the current war, well, it is definitely the war of the future, because as you rightly noted that no other, no other weapon allows you to hit the positions of the occupiers with such precision , well, in this case, the occupiers are the russian occupiers, do you have enough drones on the front right now? is this always a problem, a constant problem, finding funds, constantly finding suppliers, because there are those people who have already established the production of these drones themselves in ukraine, and to what extent do you think the efforts of the state and the efforts of state

administrations help to create this entire infrastructure, because we know that the russians are now creating several factories in and together with the iranians are trying to create these capacities of ours engineers are much stronger than iranian engineers, it is absolutely obvious, only the question is to what extent this is a mass type of weapons production, i will tell you yes, you are absolutely right that the war was similar to the times of the first the second world war, you know when i first found myself in a replica under fire and i actually found myself in some kind of movie about the first or second world war and i never thought i thought that the times when you sit in the dugouts under constant fire are these times have ended and only movies remain. and no , they are not over, they are also happening in this war, but on the other hand, look at what modern history is, and you said about the accuracy

of the hymares, it also hits accurately, but there is one nuance of the hymares cost. much, much more expensive even his projectile is hundreds of thousands of dollars. oh, and heymertz himself. millions, millions, and a small one in beer. as you show now on the screen, it costs from $ 400 and is capable of destroying any enemy tank with an enemy battery, any enemy dugout, and so on, that is, cheapness and the fact that it is possible get here at our engineers there in a nearby place, this of course gives a super advantage in terms of whether they are enough well, of course, at any military you ask if there are enough weapons, everyone will tell you that it is not enough if compared to there a year ago

this is of course heaven and earth weapons , prykarpattia would become a lot more. those guys always put off these drones and suddenly the tanks will go and suddenly there will be some hard times and we will have to and we will have nothing to fight with and you put off a dozen or so drones so that they would lie down, but that's how we wanted it to work so as not to think about it in order to constantly charge to beat on added to make an impression on the enemy and plan operations taking into account the fact that you have a super sufficient number of drones and in fact here is such a story that it is possible we constantly

think from poverty that there are not enough drones there something we invent and so on, but this is possible because our engineers are dozens, maybe even a hundred companies in ukraine that produce these drones, and of course this story should be scaled to the maximum, such enterprises should be exempted from taxation there provide state loans and almost interest-free state grants should be provided so that this industry will take off, so that we do not produce 15,000 drones as now, but produce 15,000 drones per month, so that it would be hundreds of thousands of drones per month, i believe and believe me, i am constantly communicating with the guys from the best brigades , we are fully convinced that the enemy can be defeated precisely with drones, and that precisely drones and precisely our ukrainian production can be

the turning point in the war so that we get a faster victory, we have already listened to what he is saying volodymyr zelenskyi about our counteroffensive before that read a lot of different information in foreign media that tried to somehow characterize or give some kind of verdict on the counteroffensive that started at the beginning of the summer, they say that it was supposed to be in the spring , but it didn't start, it started in the summer, the ukrainian side is talking about that give us more weapons we will be more with them give us more opportunities we will break through the defenses of the russians in the south and in the east at the same time the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff of the united states america's mark milli said that the counteroffensive of the ukrainian army did not fail, they mean the ukrainian troops did not fail, i know that there are some comments that this offensive somehow failed, it did not

fail he said this in an interview with cnn milli noted that the counteroffensive is progressing more slowly than expected, but he consistently emphasized to miley, well, it is clear that a counteroffensive is always more resources , including human resources, and every life is worth its weight in gold in ukraine, every life of every military man, and constantly repeat a how is the counteroffensive not going that way, for some reason this whole story with kharkiv is not being repeated zelensky made it clear why it is not being repeated because the russians have already prepared and were preparing for all this now er considering the situation that is developing in the direction of bakhmut and er to what extent the russians are pulled away from the southern flank, because the main blow of the ukrainian military is now going in the direction of zaporizhzhia in order to break through and cut

the ways of supplying weapons by land along the land corridor with russia to the occupied of the regions of ukraine. do you feel this, this, this move of this counteroffensive, as civilian people are talking about it, as we think , because you are at the front, you see much more than we do sitting here in the studio, what can i say about the counteroffensive and these statements you you know, it is probably good to sit somewhere there, it is possible across the ocean, it is possible in general , just in a neighboring country with calm conditions, and just understanding some general features of war, military standards , and so on, to think about how the counteroffensive is moving, that it is not moving so fast

believe me, i am a military man who is now right on the front line, and i do not fully understand how our attack aircraft do it. across the field, go further deep for kilometers and kilometers and you carry everything on yourself , starting with your weapon and machine guns, ammunition. but it is on you with a hail of fire and you are still clearing positions, well, without any dominance in the air, without aircraft, without proper of numbers or a bull in the artillery, well, believe me, these are impossible things, and what's more, the counteroffensive is advancing constantly. yes, it's possible not

so fast somewhere. it's 100 m, and somewhere this is . what news stormtroopers, they cheer and inspire because after all they do the impossible, they advance and believe me, this message is very different among all units, starting with the infantry, territorial defense, ending with the special forces there, alpha and all the rest really our successes are inspiring, so i can't say whether i'm satisfied or dissatisfied. i'm already healing from the fact that he's going in such conditions, that he's real, that we don't stop , that our soldiers don't lay down their arms and don't refuse to go on these offensives, that he goes through it very, very cool, and this just showed that we now need an increase in weapons so that this counteroffensive moves faster, starting with just

ammunition and ending with an even faster transfer of aircraft to us, e.e., the commander of the ground forces of the armed forces of ukraine informs that as a result of the successful actions of the armed forces, the enemy's line of defense under bakhmut was breached. we have already talked about this . one of the largest, most prepared and best units of the enemy, 72-83 and the 31st brigade of the russian federation, were defeated and completely incapacitated. how are you? are you evaluating the enemy who is standing in front of you across the front line, because in these 1.5 years you have seen , hmm, the composition of the fighters who came out is obviously different, especially since you have a relationship with the drones, and you definitely saw them much more through the drones than anyone

how are those who are now in the direction of bakhmut, in particular, different from those who were a year ago? oh, i will probably say something unpopular, but at least i sincerely believe that our enemy. while they made a significant mistake on february 24, when they did not evaluate us, they were riding tanks, not going to war they went to hold a parade and we smashed them, they did not expect this and it was an underestimation. here i would like to urge everyone not to make this mistake of underestimating the enemy, so they treat their troops as mobilization meat and this by the way, their advantage is because they do not value human life and we constantly have to think about the protection of our soldiers, but what about drones , believe me, they learn every day conditionally if our effective drone has arrived at the position

the very next day, there will be a net hanging there the very next day these positions there will be branches tired into the ground that will prevent us from flying over with a drone, they are already equipped with cannons, uh, fish, and here are those that will jam our half-rounds, the enemy learns very quickly , you won’t see any tank columns there that there were in the first days of the war, there is no such thing anymore, on the contrary, the enemy is even further away and further , the tank pulls the equipment, as a rule, so that we do not get , if we are talking about the infantry , the attack. these ordinary groups are very, very many for assaults but of course their tactics and strategy have changed very significantly and what's more, i know because i communicate with our humor with our
